They are 110% blasting trillions of dollars of opus tokens and not saying anything because it pisses off redditors

on a related note, there's been some chatter recently about software engineering skills (eg the ruby/rust/elixir drama). i'm a bit torn because while i do feel like they're software engineering principles and patterns are still important, at the same time i wonder if there will come a point in time when they just won't matter anymore. not that they're no longer useful, but that your own intuition can fill in the gaps as you use agents in an intuitive sense rather than knowing explicitly what they're doing

if that doesn't make sense, the analogy i have is the first iphone. 20 years ago you had to be a professional with expensive equipment, now just with a phone and some creativity you can film content that's compelling to a new audience. i don't know if there's a term for this but i want to call it "skill compression". where what used to be gatekept and prohibitive to experts becomes accessible to a new audience of creators with a whole new meta. the details have sort of faded away and now the craft is not in knowing the equipment and how to use it, but how you use it creatively

we're going to see a whole new generation of builders who've never seen or written a line of code build incredible things

"The era of software being over, is so over". Hell yeah. Whatever problems humanity must face, computers and software will be central to the solution.

So very excited to partner with @CompleteSkeptic and team to make software better. Long devs, long programming and long Jev!!!

A man cannot prompt the same agent twice, for it is has compacted and is not the same agent, and he is not the same man

[Alex @Avisolei]

Yeah, this is legit. Right as they posted this I was fighting a butchered model in ClaudeCode, it had a broken chest texture (among other things) and it just couldn’t fix it. Hooked Opus 5.5 up to Voyager, it ran a loop for an hour, and one shot this result is incredible. Can’t wait to use it more. Before/after:
